Clippity Doo Dog – Annapolis, MD
Never again! I needed to get my poodle groomed for an event. The groomer I had been using was getting very sloppy so I decided to give Clippity Doo Dog a try. I scheduled an appt about 2 weeks away (Thurs). The appt came-no groomer. I called around 30 min after the appt time. No answer so I left a message. Finally I get a text from her saying that she had an emergency & could she reschedule for Sun. The day AFTER my event. I told her no, I needed him groomed for the event. She said she could come Sat at 8:30 am. 8:30 roles around...no groomer. I sent her a text asking if she's still coming. She texts back saying yes. I'll give her ONE more chance cuz who's going to fit him in now? I said trim his hair HALF of the length it was. She SHAVED HIM! I had to go back & fix her mistakes! He looks HORRIBLE. She cut half the ear hair off as in thickness. She didn't cut the hair on his face short enough, esp around his eyes & nose. she didn't cut the hair close on his feet to give him "poodle paws". I am sooooo upset! I could have done a better job. You don't shave a poodle! You don't cut the ears diagonally! I was so embarrassed at the event. He was the WORST looking dog there. Other people agreed that he looked ridiculous. I sent her an email regarding this & she didn't even have the decency to apologize or respond at all. I was so upset that I didnt want to talk with for fear I would say something very nasty. Don't use her!! You'll be so SORRY!!'
